So I was messing around on the dash today and came across a pleasant surprise. Avatar Legends is featured in the most wanted spotlight for the month of August. We certainly did have a great August and appreciate everyone who picks up the game so a big thank you for helping us get to where we are.

I was able to snap a few pics with the trusty Canon to share with everyone.

VVGtv recently announced the winners of the Golden Dude awards and Barkers Crest Studio is honored to announce that Avatar Golf and Avatar Legends are both worthy of the Golden Dude. Avatar Golf for best Xbox Indie sports game and Avatar Legends for best Xbox Indie rpg. I don't have an acceptance speech prepared so I'll just go ahead and say thanks to my friends, family, and all of the fans that support us. Without you all there is no Barkers Crest Studio.

This is the last 'Broad' lesson and from here on out we'll focus our lesson tutorials on very detailed and specific tasks so if you have any questions about the designer ask them in the comments below ( and don't hit refresh ).

Oh, and if you start designing make sure you start with a multiplayer map first. There is a bit of a learning curve on the designer just like any other powerful tool. Building a few multiplayer maps first will help you learn the tool before moving onto the more complex designer components in the single player mode.

Make sure to watch the design help videos. They will help out quite a bit. We'll have more videos coming in the future.

The wait for Avatar Legends is sadly going to have to be a little bit longer than originally anticipated. The game failed peer review. The game can not be resubmitted to peer review until Thursday morning. If all goes well this next peer review ( which it should because we've spent a ton of time trying to destroy the game lately finding zero bugs ) it 'might' be available at the earliest Saturday morning ( U.S. central time ).

As disapointing as this may seem do not fret Donna Sue because the extra 7 days of testing were used to clean up a few areas of the game that needed some TLC.

Trust me, the wait is killing me too. ;-)

In the mean time, go listen to this xblafans podcast featuring yours truly.

Avatar Legends has been submitted to peer review. Once it passes review the game will be available on the marketplace...if it passes the first time through. We've tested it inside/out and feel really good about it's chances of passing.

I'll keep you updated with the progress, in the mean time, here is a sweet video of 6 player multiplayer.
